Adding Images to Text Areas

Using an Image snippet is the easiest way to add images to your website. But image snippets can not be placed side by side, they can only be stacked like all other snippets. And they are only available on website pages, not in registration forms, communications or other team management areas.

Recommended image formats are jpg, png, and gif.

The ideal sizes for images for pages with sidebars should be no wider than 600 pixels for page content areas and images for the sidebar should be no wider than 280 pixels. Full width pages can be as wide as 920 pixels. Larger images take longer to download—it’s worth it to resize the image to fit in the area you intend to use it in before uploading.

You can resize the appearance of an image that you’ve added by clicking the image in the text area and then dragging the corner of the rectangle surrounding the image. This just changes the view of the image, it does not actually make the image smaller in bytes.

You can, however, add images to any available text editor field throughout the site using the following steps:

Step 1

To add this image to a Text Area snippet, go to the web page you are editing, and select Manage Team > Edit Page Content.

Click +Add Snippet, drag over a new Text Area snippet (or edit an existing snippet), and click the Insert Image button in the text editor menu.

Images can be uploaded directly from a file on your computer, or you can insert a link to your image.

Click Insert to add the image to your snippet.

The same process also works for adding images to any editable text field throughout the site. This example shows how to add an image to an outgoing message in Communications.
